ABSTRACT

Sambus kanssuensis Ganglbauer, 1890 (Coleoptera: Buprestidae), distributed in Gansu and Sichuan Provinces of China, is a phytophagous pest that feeds on the toxic plant Buddleja. However, the genomic resources of this beetle remain unknown, which impedes the understanding of its ecological adaptations. Consequently, this study presents a complete, well-assembled, and annotated genome of S. kanssuensis. The assembled results indicate a genome size of 312.42 Mb, comprising 206 scaffolds, with an N50 of 34.04 Mb; 98.68% of the assembly sequences were anchored to 11 chromosomes, including one sex chromosome. The genome contains 12,723 protein-coding genes, of which 11,977 have been annotated. BUSCO analysis revealed that the completeness of the chromosome-level genome is 97.9%. This chromosome-level genome provides valuable data for further investigations into detoxification mechanisms, ecological adaptations, population genetics, and the evolution of Buprestidae.
